PROS - The keyboard itself is an excellent piece of hardware. It only took me a few minutes to figure out how to work everything and I was jamming in no-time. If you're looking for something simple, that you can take along with you, this is the controller for you. CONS - No faders, but thats expected. Lacking aftertouch, but then again, its 100 bucks, what did you expect? On a side note, everybody is complaining about the software, which isn't that big of a deal for me, because I never planned on using that stuff anyways. The drivers work fine on 8 just install in compatibility mode.

The Air 32 is a good keyboard. I plan to use it more as a travel instrument but it seems to fulfill my needs. Its incredibly light, couple pounds tops. And already designed for ableton, making it easy to carry/set up. No Re-MIDI mapping every time I use anything beyond the keyboard (nobs, beat pads, pitchbend buttons). I really enjoy having the extra 7 keys, since I like to build instrument racked drum kits in Ableton. I like to use a wide range of bass notes, and the 32 provides this. I have not tried the Ignite software included and cannot tell you anything about it sorry.

This Mini keyboard has most all the features of the Axiom Pro 49 ( which I own also) I purchased the 32 Mini for use with my laptop for those times I don't want to " fire up " the whole studio for some minor fix on a midi or audio track. It is an amazing little keyboard controller with big keyboard features.

"Great size doesn't make up for poor performance"

Well built, love that it fits in my laptop bag and can travel with me - main reason for purchase. Keys are VERY spongy, okay for this price point, but need a solid strike to register. There's no subtle playing on this thing, you need to hammer the keys for them to register. It's frustrating enough to have made me quit carrying it.
